    TH Black Eye (Soldano GTO) prototype build

    So far I have not been able to stop the pedal from squealing. Swapped to a 1spot power supply, added shielded in and out wires, put tube shields on, still squeals 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

    I’ve also thought about using Cerakote but I don’t think the waterslide would adhere correctly.

    What gun are you using now? I have a 2001 Yamaha Raptor 660R that I’m fixing up and being able to coat all of the small parts would make life mucho easier.

    Amazon says my 1Spot will be here Sunday but I have my doubts lol. I think I’m going to get a powder coating gun and go to town on all of my pedals.

    I’m going to try this one. True Tone 1 SPOT

    I double checked my pedalboard PSU and yep, it’s rated for 250mA per outlet 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

    TH Black Eye (Soldano GTO) prototype build

    Tried swapping tubes and made sure they were fully inserted with no change. I had a couple of tube shields laying around so I tried sliding them over the tubes which helped quite a bit but something still doesn’t seem right.

    TH Black Eye (Soldano GTO) prototype build

    To my surprise all the parts showed up today and I just finished getting the Black Eye together. It sounds great until I turn the gain up about half way and then it starts feedbacking non-stop. Any ideas?

    I’m about 1.5 hours away from Mouser’s Houston warehouse so I normally get things the next day. I really need to learn how to design my own artwork. I will probably end up getting Adobe illustrator for awhile since there are so many tutorials for it.

    My board and enclosure showed up yesterday. I won’t have the rest of the parts until Monday though. Oh well lol.

    First time ordering from Tayda 😂

    Finally scored some 6L6GCs! (Amp repair time)

    Damn mice peed on it while in storage but thankfully the only damage was cosmetic. Much fun lol.

    My order is in! @vigilante398 thanks for doing this man, it’s greatly appreciated!

    What are some “must build” pedal circuits that you think everyone should try?

    I ordered four tested Philco GE transistors to hopefully build a Fuzz Face and a Rangemaster. Gain(hfe) Leakage 1. 122 120 uA 2. 62 30 uA 3. 83 95 uA 4. 42 10 uA

    This poor amp definitely needed some help.

    I have experience repairing tube amps (and 480v 3-phase panels) so safely working with high voltage isn’t new to me.

    Meh, the high voltage will sort out the weak :ROFLMAO: I am 100% in for a milled enclosure.

    All of the great builders were “nobodies” at one time 🙂

    Finally scored some 6L6GCs! (Amp repair time)

    I have a B52 AT212 combo amp that I’ve been repairing but had to stop because I couldn’t find a matched quad of 6L6GC tubes. Yesterday I was finally able to order a set so I can finally get this amp up and running again and finish the mods.

    I would definitely like to have a vented enclosure. I had not heard of Sushi Box FX until this thread started and saw it printed on the board. I didn’t realize you had made so many awesome pedals.
